In preparation for Adalyn to arrive, we had to get the crib out of Megan's room, and into the nursery, which only meant that Megan would now be in a big girl bed! 
My mom and grandma came up in May while DJ was at his video coordinator convention and I tok three days off work, so we could set up the nursery and Megan's room. DJ and I had moved Gretchen upstairs the two weekends before.
We first started by taking the crib apart and out of the room, then we got busy putting the bed together. And y'all, i'm still not sure it's together the right way, but it's holding her and hasn't caved in!
We actually switched the sides of her dresser with where her crib use to be, and then put her bed where her dresser was. I really didn't think it would give her the extra room, but my grandma was right- it did. Let's pause for a minute and recognize the fact that my grandma was right.... she ALWAYS is. I kid you not.
Above: her dresser, which has tons and tons of little knick knacks.
And, her bed. We were able to purchase a full size iron bed for her because my mother in law gave us the money (so graciously) after a bedroom set we had given to her was damaged in a tornado. She didn't need to purchase another bed at the time, so she gave us the money in order to purchase Megan Claire's bed and furniture.
And yes, I realize my two year old is sleeping in a queen size bed. I had a full or queen size bed growing up and I just adored it! It was so much easier when friends spent the night, and even though now, we could have purchased twin size- we had already purchased Gretchen's queen size and I wanted the same for Megan. Not realizing that we would ever have a third child, let alone a third little girl!
Megan's bedding came from Target.
Beside her bed is her nightstand, which now still holds her diapers and changing pad. She's well on her way to potty training success, and the changing pad and most of the diapers will be moved over to Adalyn's room in the next two weeks.
My stepdad made MC this little stool, and my mom and I painted. We still say that we'll add her name or monogram, and just haven't gotten around to it.
She has a little empty corner beside her dresser, so I made it a little toy corner. We really need to get another storage piece, because most of the toys are just piled in the basket and on the floor, but for now it works well.
This is the little display I have above her toys, and I left her mobile hanging for a whimsical effect.
And on the other side of her room is the closet and a doll bed. She loves babies!
I'm totally in love with the way her room turned out! She's doing so good sleeping in her big girl bed! We only had one or two rough nights when we transitioned her, but we also had family here and I think she honestly just didn't want to go to sleep! I found on idea from Pinterest, about slipping jumbo pool noodles underneath the fitted sheet, in order to keep from falling out of bed, and knock on wood, but it's totally worked! So, she does have two giant humps in her sheets, but we really didn't want to purchase a side railing for her ("because Gretchen didn't have one"- was DJ's excuse), but I was still terrified that she'd fall out and wind up with a concussion. Seriously, the pool noodles work great!
